Parking

Security Services administers and enforces the University parking on campus. The purchase of a Parking Permit is not required as the University does not guarantee a place to park.
 
Students in Residence Parking   
 
Students in residence who have a vehicle on-site for the academic year must register their vehicle with the University. Dashboard parking permits are to be displayed at all times. To obtain a student dashboard parking permit complete the Vehicle Registration Form, and forward it to security@stfx.ca. Your permit will be mailed to you promptly. Parking is on a first-come-first serve basis. Students are asked to adhere to parking etiquette and seasonal parking bans.
